I am pleased to announce the last pattern release in my Crossroads Collection (at least for now), the Children’s Crossroads Cowl. Inspired by my Crossroads Scarf and my Crossroads Cozy, I designed a cowl with the wee little ones in mind.
Like my Crossroads Cozy and the Adult Crossroads Cowl, I have used the link stitch and crossed double crochet stitch, joined and worked in the round from bottom up. I hope you’ll agree that the Children’s Crossroads Cowl will make a great project and gift for those little ones in your life!
The small child sized Crossroads Cowl is available for free here on my blog. You can find my photo tutorial for the link stitch here and joining the link stitch here! If you prefer all the information and tips at your fingertips, I have included both photo tutorials in the paid pattern pdf for the Crossroads Cowl which is available in my Ravelry store! Enjoy!
